Have any of you pondered eternal recurrence? What are your thoughts? By Eternal Recurrence, I mean either: (A) The Universe is simply repeating the same events over and over (You and I have live this life unfathomable times before) or (B) the Universe repeats over and over but each time is a random and the outcomes/situations may be different

This reminds me of the theory that a leprechaun follows me around all day but it hides every time I turn around.
We live in infinity within eternity
Another ridiculous concept derived by ignorance coupled with simplicity. The list of this stupid stuff humans have contrived over the years is endless. To what end would this even be rationale in any mind? For example, how can you even test such a hypothesis? what is it other than an odd mental thought exercise that merely produces time loss.
I feel ripped off even responding tbh.
I wouldn't be that harsh. Simply because we cannot test a hypothesis doesn't mean we should exclude it from consideration (this is a conspiracy forum after all). From our extremely limited understanding the idea seems far fetched, but given we have no definitive understanding of the universe, or what lies beyond, who knows
I guess I am just bitter as it would never ever provide anything slightly tangible with any input one can provide in the current world.
I personally see it as another scapegoat based on the big bang line of thinking. Another ridiculous hypothesis that has led to decades of bad work producing no valid results just more bad guesswork.
All of it is a logical fallacy, the more likely reality is plasma cosmology if we want to push any borderline thinking, here at least we can test our theories produce results and backing for the claims made.
I haven't heard of plasma cosmology. I enjoy considering these "more.exotic" theories but I concede that a lack of understanding doesn't mean ANY theory is possible. Scapegoat thinking is an interesting point. I often think these theories should be paired with the philosophical impact upon humanity
I am nearly offended you are digging into a hypothesis such a recurrence when plasma cosmology (electric universe) exists as a much more sound alternative to the big bang theory.
Especially with respect to a philosophical impact. For me I think it would be easy to be unhappy with the results of the money spent searching for dark matter and black holes, never mind the profound impact of such belief systems forced upon society by leading figures.
If nothing else this topic introduced me to plasma cosmology. I watched a short 10min video on it and plan to explore the topic further.
What do you think about reincarnation?
The belief that the energy running in the brain continues to live without the ethereal form seems unlikely to me.
When we understand how the brain works, how pathways are formed much of what is conceived in our brains is understandable, from the desire to unravel everything or produce explanations for the unknown is normal.
This is the origin of belief systems, like when you tell a small child there is a dragon in the living room, they have a tendency to believe you entirely, this is likely due to the bond of trust the child has developed for you.
Pretty much everything you can conceive has been conceived before and you will likely manifest thought patterns around what you have learned. So it stands to reason we are working with many unknowns. So when it comes to human development and human history so much has been done to thwart any attempt to collect information overtime we have ended up with much of it manipulated into belief systems.
That's pretty damn ignorant. Can't you see the connections. I pity you if you can't. Can't you see them everywhere. It's not just people either. But it's matrix level repetition. It's like being in a maze. Where the past and future plays itself over and over, and you're stuck in the middle, present interactions of it.
I am not getting into an explanation. I have tried in past conversations. It's there, so profoundly it is impossible to blank out. Easier to hide from it, but that's impossible.
Okay for instance two weeks ago. I text something quite harshly, it needed nudging. The problem wouldn't be resolved if it wasn't said. I had to pop out, after the text to grab a prescription. But immediately walking down the road to the pharmacy. Not far, 3 people said the same ending of that text, before I act. It was basically getting investigators and solicitors involved, before I act on this, please do the repair. You could fucking scream. 3 people different people said act on this, act on it. Literally. Is how painful it is. Knowing you're trapped in something.
What did I see, their hesitation, even anger, and the problem resolved. Time and space. But crap. Do you need it. It's every connection unravelling around you all the time. Repeating itself, causing, reacting. Stronger the link, impact, the more noticeable it is. Yes it's real, even if you're blind to it. I could scream at it. It's not good. Prefer being ignorant. It hurts more.
This appears like a mental disorder.
Like basically imagine if you will, you approach the sink and turn the valve on the faucet, the water flows. you turn the opposite way, the valve closes the water ceases to flow.
I suspect this process will continue until something fails. Pretty much everyone understands the operation of a valve and the flow of water.
This is how things are done, a repeating cycle of action and activity give and take action and reaction. Many things develop simple patterns that repeat, people come along and work their magic with an explanation that they want to reveal to others and prove they have the understanding. Lot's will just accept it. Others will scrutinize it. Some will even remain skeptical.
So if you see a pattern being repeated, relax. its ok. It is what happens.
Nonsense. I can't control it. I just know it means something. Like whispers from the wind. They freak people out. But it's just the wind you say. Not if it means something. It's not coincidence. The end of that text. 3 different people in 5 minutes of walking, 2 there, and 1 back. No way. I am not mental hearing it. They said it. It wasn't who I text. They didn't know what they said. But at this point. I question my existence. All I can do. Who says act walking down the road. Random as hell. All the words, those then. I could scream. Why did I hear it. Because in a parallel what was unfolding. Seriously tell me? You might be blind to it.
It's much worse when it's bad karma. The ripples of hurtful action manifesting. The blame, guilt, and hate. Or when something tragic occurs. I don't want to say more you have given a diagnosis.
Sure, I won't disagree it is my opinion as I have never been subjected to it. I have never seen anything that was not there, nor have I ever manifested a sound that was not obvious.
Does not mean others have not, does not mean when they do its not a malfunction in their circuits. Or something unknown, I prefer to reject anything unknown until it proves itself or at least produces some evidence. When it comes to personal experience it is he said she said.
Look at it this way, if you have ever heard of a thing.. then rest assured it has been done... lot's, by tons of different people. Based on this, you can realize your ability to innovate is extremely limited due to the scaling nature of humanity and the many years that have passed.
Using this information, you can realize you are also exposed to these ideas being played out by others using whatever tooling is relevant to the time and space at hand. So, odds are you are being bamboozled in one way or another when it comes to experiencing anything metaphysical.
It's there. It's everywhere. Those connections manifesting. I use to be immune, and didn't care, couldn't see it. Those idiots, saying their bullshit. But when it's looking through a keyhole at your existence through those eyes. I wish I still was. It was easier when I was ignorant. Much easier. Now it's a nightmare. Like a horror film. It means something. It always does. It always occurs. Repeatedly repetition, stuck, can only observe. Annoyingly. Those idiots have nothing to do with me. Hang on. Why, what, how. Like that Westworld shit. Seriously. It becomes that bad. It happens everywhere, all the time. I gave one example. I could provide countless more.
You're blind, I envy you. I had a hard knock, the worst, and it started. I can't turn it off.
But it's there, easier being blind. You don't want to see the other side. Imagine seeing something hateful. You pissed somebody off. Family perhaps. Imagine getting that feed. Bouncing back. Or regret. Or tradegy like pain, death, and injury. What can you do? You're powerless. It still occurs. But it hurts. Knowing.
I don't like your tone or connotations. I am not manifesting anything. I didn't hear a voice in my head. I heard somebody unrelated saying something that directly connected to me. I didn't say it, they did. Who are they. A random occurrence, unrelated. Except, what the fuss, they are related because of that occurrence sooner unfolding. It's not just people either. So strongly, it is a parallel. So strongly it becomes the future or a past you have affected, becoming the present. No, it's fundamentally, not them, they are strangers. It's an observation. But it occurs. It always occurs. It's everywhere. All the time. They have nothing to do with me. But why are they manifesting? Because it does have something to do with you, it always does. It's connected. Some how, some way. Don't know how. But those connections manifest. Of course if you stopped and challenged them, those random people saying what they did, and asked why did you just say that, they literally have no clue what they did. None at all. And a new set of probability occurs as a result, and an entirely new set of circumstances. Then walking back afterwards you'd see a retard, or somebody so confused it would be comical.
Never pondered it.
It does sound a lot like Buddhist and Hindu theology, which I have rejected after giving it serious theological consideration.
What about agartha?
Sorry, I'm not well versed in the concept of Agartha.
Agartha is the capital of inner earth, or so the Buddhists believe

Okay, I've always been more into their ideas of reincarnation and nirvana.
